# The geometry of the message window.
# The height is measured in number of notifications everything else in pixels. If the width
# is omitted but the height is given ("-geometry x2"), the message window
# expands over the whole screen (dmenu-like). If width is 0,
# the window expands to the longest message displayed.
# A positive x is measured from the left, a negative from the
# right side of the screen. Y is measured from the top and down respectevly.

# SCRIPTING
# you can specify a script that gets run when the rule matches by setting
# the 'script' option.
# The script will be called as follows:
# script appname summary body icon urgency
# where urgency can be "LOW", "NORMAL" or "CRITICAL".
